(-23) ON FEBRUARY 15, 2007 AT 0840 MST A CESSNA 402B, N593DM, MADE A HARD LANDING AT THE CARLSBAD, NEW MEXICO (CNM) AIRPORT AFTER EXPERIENCING AN ENGINE FAILURE WHILE ON FINAL APPROACH TO LANDING AT CNM. THE AIRCRAFT WAS OPERATING UNDER 14 CFR 135 ON AN IFR FLIGHT PLAN FROM ROSWELL, NEW MEXICO (ROW) TO CNM. INSTRUMENT METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS PREVAILED AT THE TIME. THE COMMERCIAL RATED PILOT, THE SOLE OCCUPANT, WAS NOT INJURED. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
